Punk rock for Your Dystopian Present
Nazis have come to town, authoritarians moved back into the White House, genocide is back, a lot of bad shit. The Glumlots, meet in Dave’s shed to make some ungodly, unsanctionable noise. Afterwards, everyone feels better, so we do it again, and again and…
It’s punk rock. It’s loud. It’s political. The Glumlots are old, most of us. We were around when the Sex Pistols came to Georgia, when the B-52s Rock Lobstered SNL, when The Clash called from London, Iggy got Bored, David Rebelled Rebelled, The MC5 Kicked Out. It’s a long list of influences when you’ve been around a long time.
Praise for Rat’s Nest the first release from The Glumlots eponymous LP:
“Look for it to be seated firmly on my weekly radio charts. It is THAT good and just what I needed during these times. Best played loud! Thank you for writing this!” “Boris” Boden (The Secret Weapon on Woody Radio)
Bob Marcinkus (bass), Dave Trimeloni (drums), Jay Lawrence (guitar) and Stephen Simon (guitar, vocals), The Glumlots, are banging their way into America’s dark, broken heart. Dare to believe that you could once again hate the establishment, in good company!
Sick of racist politicians? Need to scream into the void? Baffled by what it means to be an American? Weighed down by crushing existentialism? The Glumlots are for you!
After the second chorus, this version has the phrase:
“Pissing on everything that’s good.”, sung four times in a row.
No “Pissing” version. No “Pissing”, no swears.
In the second verse this version has the phrase:
“Got a lot of bad shit in our history. We’ve got a lot of bad shit going on right now.”
No “Shit” version. No “Shit”, no swears.
